UNATTRACTIVE HAIR.

Unfasten tin l hair and lifting it one strand at a time brush slowly and steadily from the scalp outwards with a swooping lifting motion. Keep this up for at least ten minutes and then give the scalp- a few vigorous strokes to awaken the dormant circulation. Hollow this up by rubbing into the scalp Kamos Rosemary and Qinino Hair Tonic which restores the hair capillaries to their full time vigour and makes your hair soft and luxuriant. You can secure a bottle of Kamos for 3s (id. postage 3d extra from H. Cameron Smith, Chemist., Cathedral Square. Christchurch.— Advt.
